As I looked around my parents' house this weekend I noticed a number of pictures of my sister's step-daughter. I caught myself wanting to give them pictures of my child to add to their collection, to share oohs and aaa's with visitors; to adorn their shelves with generational blessings smiling their way each day. Those are the tough moments. But are they tough because of my longing for a child or are they tough for my own egocentric reasons? Showing off "Look what I made!"
I thank the Lord for moments like these when I can stop and test the Spirit for answers to these questions. I know it is not my time yet. The Lord is good and His timing is perfect. I will continue to inquire of the Lord and wait as he continues to bless me in my patience.
Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of the man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him. 1 Corinthians 2:9
